the longer they stall, the more people will forget about it... and they 'know' that.

Interesting, Benghazi, which killed Americans, happened a long time ago. Everything Bush did is fair game when they are in a pickle though.

and as 'for the clearances' Carney mentioned today and Obama, yesterday:

DiGenova: State Dept. Denying Clearance to Benghazi Whistleblowers' Attorneys
April 29, 2013

Former U.S. Attorney Joe DiGenova said today that the State Department is denying clearances to attorneys who want to represent Benghazi whistleblowers - even though one of the attorneys already has a current Top Secret security clearance.

"The Department of State is refusing to grant clearances to Victoria and other people who want to represent the whistleblowers in an attempt to prevent the testimony," DiGenova, founding partner of the Washington, D.C. law firm of diGenova & Toensing, LLP, charged in an interview on Washington DC's WMAL radio.

"Victoria Toensing, my partner, has just been retained by one of the Department of State whistleblowers who are going to appear before the Issa committee. On April 26, Congressman Issa sent a letter to the new Sec of State, John Kerry, demanding that the lawyers who are going to represent the whistleblowers be cleared - be given clearances - so they can talk to their clients and the committee about classified information."

"She (Toensing) got a new top secret security clearance within the last year. And, now, they will not clear her or any of the other lawyers to represent the Department of State people. This is so outrageous," DiGenova said.

The truth will ultimately come out, but it'll take "a Constitutional showdown," he predicted:

Everyone in the Obama administration copies Obama. So. Everyone who speaks for Obama is also a LIAR.

Why is anyone surprised with what Carney said? He lies just like his boss. Who would destroy him if he said anything else.

We all know it. They know it. Obama knows it.

Just remember. When you tell One lie. Eventually the liar must make up another lie to cover up the first, and on, and on, and on.

OBAMA IS A LIAR. And THAT is a FACT.

That hasn't happened yet..... I doubt it will.

True BillyBob, but. Everyone who voted for Obama once, or twice. Pretends it never happened. So, they know nothing about it. Therefore, there is NOTHING for them to forget.

Symptoms of Benghazi Syndrome


The American Psychiatric Association’s latest handbook — the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) — is about to be published. It is the handbook of mental health, and if you’re not in it, you are among the fortunate few. Even though the hour is late, I beseech the DSM’s publishers to consider one additional entry, the seriousness of which will be apparent to anyone who watches Fox News: Benghazi Syndrome.


Benghazi Syndrome is a grave malady of the noggin, the symptoms of which are a compulsion to grossly exaggerate matters and to compare almost anything to Watergate (see Watergate Syndrome, DSM-IV). Patient Zero in this regard is Sen. Lindsey Graham (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/05/11/pressure-mounts-on-boehner-to-appoint-select-committee-on-benghazi/), a usually affable Republican from South Carolina who has suggested that the Benghazi episode warrants an investigation by a special congressional committee, just like Iran-contra and — drum roll, please — Watergate.

Others have gone even further. Sen. James Inhofe (http://www.politico.com/story/2013/05/inhofe-mulls-i-word-after-benghazi-91201.html?hp=l1_b5), a Republican from Oklahoma and a man who once suggested the Environmental Protective Agency has something in common with the Gestapo, called the Benghazi whatchamacallit the “most egregious cover-up in American history” and possibly an impeachable offense. These charges are so serious we can only conclude that l’affaire Benghazi has the potential to bring down the Obama administration — the proverbial thread that, if pulled, could unravel the entire garment. Such drama!


So what is Benghazi? It is the place in Libya where the United States maintained two installations — a consulate and a much larger CIA outpost. Both of these were attacked on Sept. 11, 2012, a date of some significance. The assaults, we all now know, were conducted by a jihadist group and were not — as the Obama administration initially maintained — a spur-of-the-moment thing precipitated by the airing of an anti-Muslim video. We also know that the administration either was unsure of the facts or simply didn’t like them. So it knitted together the infamous talking points that U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice repeated (http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/09/ambassador-susan-rice-libya-attack-not-premeditated/)on all the Sunday talk shows. Aside from “good morning,” little of what she said was true.


President Obama was then really Candidate Obama and he surely did not want the words “terrorist attack” uttered during the presidential campaign. In addition, the CIA and the State Department were in a cat fight and could not agree on the wording of the talking points — or even, from a fair reading of their clashing e-mails, who the fanatical enemy was: al-Qaeda or members of Congress?


In all this, it’s almost possible to forget that four Americans died in Benghazi. The event was a tragedy and it hardly matters, as then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton vociferously maintained (http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/hillary-clintons-benghazi-testimony-was-sprinkled-with-heated-exchanges/2013/01/23/749d5b60-6598-11e2-b84d-21c7b65985ee_story.html), if the attack occurred spontaneously or was planned. Either way, it was a success for the terrorists and a debacle for the United States.
